Chapter 1265: War Drums Sound
at Duguyu's admiring gaze, the coldness between her brows did not diminish. Besides Dugu Cheng, she disliked how these princes looked at her."Naturally pleased, I believe the Emperor is also very sa...Gu Li thought about it seriously, "I was arrested on the thirteenth. I woke up on the fourteenth. If you calculate carefully, it should have been midnight, which would be considered the fifteenth."
It seems my instincts were right. My mother told me that to subdue her demonic fire, she needed to drink human blood every fifteen years. Now it looks like Xinshui is the one who took away Yu Mo and the soldiers.
Wind Lingxi looked at Dugu City, "You go tell Luoli."
Guli hurriedly said, "I'll go with you. I know where that cave is."
Gu Li rushed over, but because she was out of breath, she almost fell to the ground. Luckily, Feng Ling Xi was beside her and held her up.
"What are you doing now How are you going"
Gulì shook her head, her face pale as she bit her lip and said with strength, "I can do it. Just let me eat something first. I can lead you there. Without me, it would be really dangerous for you to go."
Dugu Cheng nodded, "First get her some food. It's fine to go in the afternoon. This king will go out and see if Luo Li is back."
Feng Lingxi instructed him to be careful, then continued to ask Gu Li.
"Gu Li, how did you bring Yu Mo back When did Xinshui cut off Yu Mo's finger"
“I am the one who lived the longest. They discovered I was a woman disguised as a man and were furious. They beat and kicked me, cursing at me. In the evening, Yu Mo and several soldiers were captured. When Yu Mo called my name, that woman mistook me and Yu Mo for a couple and tortured him, forcing me to watch.”
Guli said this, her eyes filled with anger, wishing she could strangle the person who had caused this.
“Two days ago, she suddenly said you were back and there would be a good show. That woman suddenly stepped forward, cut off Yu Mo's finger, and ripped the jade pendant off me, saying she wanted to give you a surprise. After Yu Mo’s finger was severed, he got into a conflict with them, and they beat him up until he was on the verge of death before letting him go.”
Feng Lingxi, hearing this, felt a surge of anger welling up inside her. Who could have imagined that under such a stunningly beautiful face, there was a heart so venomous and treacherous
"Your injuries are from protecting Yǔmò, aren't they"
Gu Li nodded. If she hadn't helped Yu Mo block, Feng Yu Mo would have died long ago.
After they sent out Yu Mo's severed finger, they didn't attack us anymore. They just made us watch them. I rested for a night and found that my inner strength had recovered quite a bit. Taking advantage of the woman going out, I killed the two guards watching over us with concealed weapons and escaped with Feng Yu Mo using light kung fu.
"You've worked hard." This time, if it weren't for Gu Li, I'm afraid Yu Mo would have died.
Gu Li shook her head and forced a smile.
"I'm fine, Yumu is so good to me, I can save him, of course I will, you don't need to thank me."
"Okay, when he's better, have him personally apologize to you."
Feng Lingxi's words brought a blush to Gu Li's face, like a young girl's. Feng Lingxi knew that Gu Li was good to Yu Mo, and she also knew her thoughts. They had a lot in common, their interests aligned, and Yu Mo treated everyone well. It was natural for Gu Li to have feelings for him. After all, every girl goes through a time of youthful infatuation.
However, Gulì's thoughts were not as coy as other women. She liked Feng Yǔmò and wasn't afraid to show it.
"Xiao Li, go to the kitchen and get some food for her."
Feng Lingxi instructed, supporting Gu Li back to the bed and lying down.
"Your Highness, has there been any news from my father"
After months without seeing her father, Gulli's longing heart was stirred again. If her father were here, she wouldn't have to suffer so much.
"He hadn't contacted me. Before he left, he instructed me to take good care of you."
Feng Lingxi looked at Gu Li's disheartened eyes and comforted her, "Your father will be fine."
"I know, Dad said he wouldn't get into this kind of trouble so easily."
Xiaoli brought the food, Guli ate in silence, her head down. But as she ate, a tear rolled down from the corner of her eye, making people feel sympathy for her.
Feng Lingxi knew she was heartbroken now, almost losing her life, and with no family by her side, there must be many grievances in her heart that she wanted to tell but had nowhere to go.
Later we'll go see Yu Mo, he hasn't woken up yet since I just got here.
Hearing that she could go see Feng Yumo, Gu Li raised her eyes and hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes. She nodded and ate faster.
After leaving the military camp that day, Luoli had not returned to Chen Wangfu for several days. Dugu City sent people to look for him everywhere, but they couldn't find any trace of him, as if he had vanished in Xincun County.
Guli went to visit Feng Yumo, but saw that he was still unconscious. She rested for a while and then came out, agreeing to take Dugu City to search the mountain. After eating, she felt much more energetic and had some strength.
"Xi'er, wait for me at the house."
Feng Lingxi glanced at Gu Li, "You have to watch over Gu Li, her body hasn't fully recovered."
"Don't worry, I've got this."
Dugu Cheng bent down and embraced Feng Lingxi, whispering in her ear, "I've searched all over Linxi County but couldn't find Luoli and Li Wuyan. I don't know if they'll appear when I go. Be careful at home yourself. Also, I've asked Ye Su to secretly protect your safety. If you need anything, just tell him."
Feng Lingxi responded with a voice, and Dugucheng let her go. He looked at Feng Lingxi with eyes full of reluctance.
"Be careful."
Dugu Cheng responded and set out with his troops.
Dugu Cheng had just left with his people when he saw Lu Nian coming and stopped him.
"Prince Chen, where are you going Take me with you!"
Lu Nian, with a thick skin, stepped forward and inquired. He had done his research; after this great Yuan dynasty's emperor ascended the throne, his brother-in-law was placed here, and life wasn't easy for him. This army of 500,000 relied on him for sustenance, so this Prince Chen must be no ordinary man.
He should make a good impression on this brother-in-law, get him on his side. Then, wouldn't it be easy to win over the sister
"Out on an errand, how come Young Master Lu is here"
Lu Nian quickly laughed, "I'm just bored and decided to go for a walk. I didn't expect to run into the Crown Prince."
"This king going out is a bit dangerous, if young master Lu isn't afraid, then let's go together."
Lu Nian hurriedly said, "Don't worry, it's a good chance to go out and broaden my horizons."
"Yexi."
Ye Xi hurriedly found a horse for Lu Nian and took him out of the city.
Lu Nian is a talkative person.
He's also good at reading people. When Dugu City went out of the city, he could tell from the attitude of the commoners that he was deeply loved by them. Anyway, what he heard, this person is not bad.
It has to be said, his sister's eye for talent is pretty good.
After leaving the city, he went straight to the military camp. After taking roll call, he headed towards the east gate.
"My lord."
General Li was personally guarding the post. Last night, the prince did not come, and this morning several more bodies were found, all of them soldiers who had been taken away. Their deaths were the same as the previous soldiers, which was terrifying. They could only reinforce their manpower.Hearing about Dugu City, Feng Lingxi's face softened slightly, "How is he""Good, these days have been searching the mountains for Saint Master's whereabouts, but there has been no news."Feng Lingxi si...
